Hello
Welcome! My name is Damon Turner, and I am a Marriage and Family Therapy Intern at Stepping Stones to Success Counseling under the supervision of Robert Thomas, LMFT. I specialize in couples and family therapy, working with individuals, couples, and families navigating challenges such as Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, and Substance Use Disorder. With over three years of experience, I am passionate about helping clients learn to cope with life’s difficulties, develop problem-solving skills, and create healthier relationships. Currently, I accept reduced fee private pay only.

About Me
In my practice, I utilize an integrative approach, combining Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Positive Psychology to create individualized strategies for each client. For couples, I incorporate techniques from Gottman Therapy, Imago Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help rebuild and strengthen relationships. I am certified in Trauma-Focused CBT and serve as a SMART Recovery facilitator, equipping clients with practical tools for overcoming addiction and achieving lasting recovery.
I hold a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Touro University Worldwide and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. My journey to becoming a therapist was deeply personal—I have firsthand experience with depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance use disorder. Thanks to therapy and the SMART program, I have achieved over a decade of sobriety, and I am committed to paying it forward by supporting others in their healing journeys.
I look forward to helping you find the tools and strategies you need to reclaim the life you deserve. Together, we can work toward a brighter, healthier future.
